It's really cool to see what small changes can do to a pic! 💖 /Turid

Editing is a (voluntary) part of VP just like it is for traditional Photography. It's nice that there are so many tools available for that! /Turið

Cropping usually makes a big difference already. As for pic adjustments... If the PM shot makes you happy as it is there's no need for "extra effort", indeed 😊 /Turið

I think Reshade is a real game changer! Never used it though. Taking a picture and editing are separate processes for me somehow (also for time reasons) /Turið

It's very helpful if you can copy adjustments to several pictures, indeed - whether you want to post a set or keep a specific mood for one game 😊 /Turið

It's just me being lazy and wanting to save time tbh 😅 /Turið

Post-editing is not a must, but can definitely help to define your own style 😌 /Turid

I have three presets at the moment that I use for all my shots, depending on the mood. I usually start with one of those and only adjust them a little if needed :3

Those little video summaries are pretty cool to show the editing process 🤩 /Turid

PS and LR are powerful tools! /Turid

Some phone's have crazy possibilities for photo editing these days! But yeah, I love LR 😌

I use grain on almost all my shots to balance the pixels and give a softer look.
My standard is between 8-12, depending on the shot 😊

What's your fav LR feature?

That's a great selection of tools 👌 /Turið

I see! Need to check it out then, I want to edit on PC more 😁 /Turið
January 9, 2026 at 10:55 PM
That makes sense! 😊 Great that it works for both! /Turið
January 9, 2026 at 10:55 PM
Agreed, it's a great app! LR and I get along better and I like that it also works on PC browser, syncing what I do on phone on PC. I try to edit on PC more - doing it on the phone is killing my joints 😂 /Turið

Oh I think Snapseed is a great editing app actually! /Turið
January 9, 2026 at 10:51 PM
That is a very impressive way to take a shot! /Turið
January 9, 2026 at 10:50 PM
Is it for phone only or does it also have a browser version like LR mobile?

Sticking to presets can create a very unique look for all your pictures! I like it when you recognise someone's VP by their style immediately 😌 /Turið

I guess the most of us were taking screenshots and accidentally stumbled over the VP community one day 😄
